[Verse 1]

I see your shadow on the street now

I hear you push through the rusty gate

Click of your heels on the concrete

Waiting for a knock coming way too late

It seems an age since I've seen you

Countdown as the weeks trickle into days

[Pre-Chorus]

So you come in and put your bags down

I know there's something in the air

How can I do this to you right now

If you're over there when I need you here?

[Chorus]

My happiness is slowly creeping back

Now you're at home

If it ever starts sinking in

It must be when you pack up and go

[Verse 2]

It seems an age since I've seen you

Countdown as the weeks trickle into days

I hope that time hasn't changed you

All I really want is for you to stay

[Pre-Chorus]

So you come in and put your bags down

I know there's something in the air

How can I do this to you right now?

If you're over there when I need you here

[Chorus]

My happiness is slowly creeping back

Now you're at home

If it ever starts sinking in

It must be when you pack up and go

[Bridge]

I know, I know, I know what is inside

I know, I know, I know what is inside

I know, I know, I know what is inside

I know, I know, I know what is inside

I know, I know, I know what is inside

[Pre-Chorus]

You're over there when I need you here

[Chorus]

My happiness is slowly creeping back

Now you're at home

If it ever starts sinking in

It must be when you pack up and go

My happiness is slowly creeping back

Now you're at home

If it ever starts sinking in

It must be when you pack up and go
